His knowledge and leadership in this area will be missed,” said John Wood, Encompass Group CEO. “After decades of honorable service to his country, Ken brought that same dedication to his role with us. We’re proud that he was able to continue his long history of service to the DOD, VA, and our nation’s military veterans through his work with Encompass.” A recipient of more than 25 military decorations and a veteran with 14 years of active duty service – including two tours in Vietnam – Ken became Director of Marine Corps and Navy Laundry Operations and a member of the Command Inspector General Team.

Ken retired from the Marine Corps Reserve in 1993 as the 4th Marine Division’s Logistics Officer. His VA service earned Ken and his coworkers many awards, including the Government’s Highest Award, the GSA Excellence in Administration Award.![Dan Guzzo IMG_0390 (1)](https://www.encompassgroup.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Dan%20Guzzo%20IMG_0390%20(1).jpg?width=300&name=Dan%20Guzzo%20IMG_0390%20(1).jpg) A member of ALM ([Association of Linen Management](https://www.almnet.org/)), TRSA ([Textile Rental Service Association](https://www.trsa.org/)), and Healthcare and Government Affairs Committees, Ken served as an industry advisor to AHE ([Association for the Health Care Environment](http://www.ahe.org/)) for the past 12 years.
